In this class, Students will learn the ancient technique of pinch pots. Their roots can be traced back over twenty thousand years ago and they still hold up to the test of time being a foundational way to create in clay today. Weekly demonstrations and critiques will be held, to share ideas and the newest glaze combinations.

  • Clay is not included in lab fee.


  • The CAC will be closed April 3-8 for spring break.

    Please Note:  This class is planned as an in person class and we expect that it will run the full semester in person.  However, there is an ongoing need to adhere to guidance and safety practices in order to safely manage the COVID-19 situation.  The guidelines from state government and public health authorities change as time progresses and the CAC may need to make adjustments accordingly.  It is possible that this class will transition to an online format at some point during the semester.  In this case, tuition refunds will not be issued unless the CAC is unable to provide the same number of class sessions as initially planned either in person or in a remote format. 
  • Students who wish to fire work in the soda kiln and are currently registered in a class that is not soda kiln specific can do so for an additional $20 fee/semester. Only available to students who have previously taken a soda kiln specific class or workshop at the CAC. Please call or stop by the office to sign up.
  • Please bring basic ceramic tools, available for purchase at the CAC.

Additionally, he assists seniors in the CAC's community outreach program at Plush Mills Senior Living. Though he is a young and budding artist, he has already developed his own unique style with his work in masks. His work centers around the way clay connects to nature, as well as the way his subconscious speaks through his hands and into his work.
